About WHBR
Full-power stations are the main licensed broadcasters in a market. They may run the highest power from the tallest towers and are protected from interference, so they set the core of what you can receive.
At 1,000 kW effective radiated power, WHBR runs more power than 79% of full-power TV stations nationwide (median: 273 kW).
Its antenna sits 415 m above the average surrounding terrain, higher than 59% of full-power stations. Taller antennas see farther: this one's radio horizon is roughly 60 miles, beyond which the signal fades quickly.
We estimate a fair-or-better signal out to about 72 miles with an outdoor antenna. That area includes 85 cities and towns in our guide with about 1,050,000 residents, as far as Crestview, FL (65 miles).
WHBR shares its transmitter site with WFGX, WWBH-LD and WEAR-TV (ABC). One antenna aimed at this site picks up all of them.
